Last year’s minutes read by Paul Baines
Chairman’s report.
Football teams, first team stayed in kent eastern div 2 mid table after strong start, didn’t win a cup. Reserves spent the season in mid table didn’t win cups either.
Cricket. First 11 promoted from div 5 as runners up. Main success was the reserves doing well and being a solid mid table side for a full season.
Football vets played a lot of games which was good and Andy Starr is currently in line to run the show. Good crop of fresh players in the pipeline as well.
Fireworks went smoothly
No Christmas draw, was felt it is too close to the fireworks and not a great income.
Bought a new mower for the football pitch and container to store it, kids have new goals. Pitches on both ends look much better.
Chairman’s final point is that “better facilities is progress” and the club is able to invest in creating better facilities, Chairman sends thanks for everyone getting involved with both improvements and upkeep.
Treasurers report
Huge over the top print out handed round, good work Gary.
Annual subs, down from last year, football subs lower because of miscommunications with Becky about the breakdown of what is match fees and what is part of subs. Gary wonders if annual subs are being collected from vets, been going south since Jon hung up his boots, matches cost £5 and no contribution towards subs is usually taken.
Football match tax, less cup games, outstanding monies also. Hopefully will be recovered.
Junior football, down because we bought new goals for the team at East Farleigh, and a hiccup with u9’s who under charged their parents for training at swadeland schools lost the club £700
Cricket income up because of new team, excellent.
Golf day, should be a fixed amount, but it was slightly under subscribed.
Ground and equipment. Same ish, but exceptional income is way way up. Mower, small mower, dug out materials, strimmer, mobile goals, covers.
Sports equipment, a lot lighter, didn’t buy football kit, 1 kit was gifted by trev, and one that was won by first team.
Ref fees are slightly lower, we played less
Training, the invoices are always late so some is rolled over from last year.
Sporting income is down year on year, but expenditure on sports is lower as well
Net income, down £200ish, but that is because we bought a lot of equipment and we are richer in equipment for it.
Bank balance is still healthy, match tax pays for running of the club and fireworks pay for the progress.
Baino says we aren’t going to buy 8 grand’s worth of equipment in 2019/20, we shall see…
Long discussion about paying subs on time, vets need to pay more, are we happy to just charge per game and take £2 per game instead of lumping people with £25. Davor to ask Starry to ask vets to pay up.
Tony’s cricket pavilion work has not been factored into this year’s report as it wasn’t submitted.
Election of officers
No change to
President, Stephen
Chairman, Baino (but his five years are up, Jen knows!!! She can count)
VC, Pearcy
Treasurer. Gary
The big vote.
Secretary, Karim is stepping down, Davor is nominated by Baino and seconded by committee, voted in by a landslide.
Vice Presidents
No one removed
Andy Baker, nominated by Becky and seconded by Committee. Voted in.
AOB
Purchasing of the cricket ground, Baino wants that looked into at 2022 when lease runs out. Ian Prideaux is reported to be keen to buy the ground from Nigel, one advantage will be the sale of alcohol.
Sharona Pearce is setting up netaball team. Winter League. No need for a committee representative until it is a few years in.
Break-ins and attempted thefts
4 break-ins in a week and we are still worried about more break ins. Damage to toro mower is costly already and we could face higher insurance. How much do we want to spend on security? We will continue discussions over next meetings.
Ton up, Terry advertises it to everyone. Appreciation to Jack for his centuries of top work and a smaller appreciation for Karim’s 3 years of slapdash work.
Quiz, this Saturday
Yearbook will be out in a week or so.
